Christian Eriksen has received an offer from French giants PSG ahead of the summer transfer window, per Italian journalist Nicolo Schira.
What’s the word?
The reporter claims that Serie A giants Inter Milan are interested in securing the signature of the Denmark international, whose contract expires in the summer.
He is subsequently able to talk to foreign clubs this month ahead of a potential move at the end of the season.
PSG, though, are said to have made the best offer, with a bid that will hand Eriksen a yearly salary of €12m (£10.1m). That works out to a weekly wage of £256,303-per-week.
Per Spotrac, Eriksen currently earns £75,000-per-week at Spurs.

Can’t turn it down
The Dane really doesn’t have much of a choice here.
Sources told Football FanCast in the summer that he was keen to move abroad in search of a new culture and a new challenge.
He would get that in France and more than treble his wages to boot.
The hope for Spurs, though, is that he gives the Ligue 1 giants an answer quickly.
He turned in a poor performance against Southampton at the weekend, having been a game-changer against Norwich City, and his inconsistency is troubling.
If he says yes to PSG, one has to hope that, with his future sorted, his head will also be right and he will be able to start performing to a high level consistently.
It would be a win-win for both parties; Spurs get a motivated Eriksen back and he finds the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
Meanwhile, Spurs fans want one man to leave in January.
